Gauze peasant dress

Breezy gauze peasant dress is everything we love about Summer style! Lightweight, crinkled construction is effortlessly chic, detailed with sheer, crochet insets at the 3/4 sleeves and hem. Elastic scoop neckline lets you choose to wear it on or off the shoulders to show off sun-kissed skin. Finished with a curve-defining, braided belt and ruffled cuffs. Fully lined.

I ordered this dress on line and really wanted to love it. Even after reading reviews of the fit, I still purchased it. When I received it and tried it on the fit was horrible. I tried it with and without the belt. I had to return it because I couldn't get it to fit properly.

This dress is really cute to look at and I love the material, but once I put it on it ran really big. I'm a 18/20 I had to get a 14/16 and it was still really big. There is absolutely no shape to the dress, unless you are large and have absolutely no curves then this dress may work for you. I tried using the belt I even tried using a different dress and its just not flattering at all. I do not recommend this dress.

Cute!

Pros: Style, Comfort

Cons: Fit

I bought this dress after seeing a photo display in my local LB store. I immediately fell in love with the lime colored dress! It can be dressed up or down when paired with cute shoes and accessories. Please be aware its not a fitted dress more of on the loose side but the belt helps to define the dress. Overall a great piece and I'm wearing mine to a wedding and can't wait!

Not as Stylish You'd Think

Date:June 17, 2013

Cons: Fit, Style

I thought the picture of this dress on the model looks great, which is why I really wanted to buy it.. However, when I tried this dress on it looked and fit more like a 'moo-moo' and definitely aged me by 15 years -- just long, straight, big and with no shape. (A belt can't fix everything). Very disappointing because I thought it would be a great summer option.

Cons: Fit, Comfort

I wear a 14w and this dress was so cute on but the elastic around the cuff area was cutting off my circulation ! My arms went numb from just trying it on.! I will be going back to the store to try on some others to seeif they were all made the same. Will keep you posted.

Not a fan!

Date:June 3, 2013

Cons: Style, Fit, Item not as described

This dress isn't just yellow, it's NEON yellow, not at all like the picture. I was very disappointed with the crazy bright color, the bag-like shape, and the wrinkly material...I'm pretty sure I have a dish towel in this same material. I sent it back and would definitely not recommend it!

Tried this in the store. The pink is a standard fuschia...nothing special. The yellow is VERY bright so it is not for the faint of heart. I would describe it more a citron than yellow...just a little hint of green to the yellow but for my dark complexion and hair it's a great color. I am very large chested and curvy and this fits 1-2" above my knees. At first I wasn't sure but as I played with the belt placement the silhouette grew on me. I am going to cut the string loops off of the side seams so I can either wear the belt higher (more of an empire waist) or maybe even without the belt. It's sort of an A-line meets a sack dress. I can see that casual look on vacation with sandals and a hat wandering the shops, etc. Then I can add the belt, wedges and swap the hat for jewelry and go to dinner. I think I will get a lot of wear out of this dress!

PERFECT SUMMER!

Date:May 18, 2013

Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort

Found my perfect easy summer look! THANK YOU for lining this dress, and not lining the arms. Love the bright color. The provided belt is awesome and gives the comfortable dress just enough shape! Dress is flattering and will keep me cool when hot! Thank you LB for this great item!

Cute, easy dress

Date:May 14, 2013

Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort

I'm wearing this dress right now and I find that it's comfortable. I love the color and I can use the belt with so many other looks other than the dress. The gauze fabric is easy. I didn't even have to iron it. I just took it into the bathroom with me when I showered for a good steaming. No wrinkles. I love that trick! The length just right for a spring/summer dress. I'm 6'0 and wear a 20 and the hem hits about 1-2 inches above my knee. And that's fine with me. It's an easy dress. Go for it!

Little dissapointed

Date:May 13, 2013

Pros: Style, Comfort

Cons: Fit, actual color

I was a bit disappointed in the fit of the dress. I am a 14 in dresses but this dress was definately oversized. I am pear shaped and all though it fit perfect at the bottom, it was way too big at the top. So it made me look a little frumpy. I loved the syle, but wish it could have fit better on top. It may fit better on an hour glass shaped body type. One last thing, the yellow is much brighter than it appears in the photos. It appears as a pastel yellow, but it was actually a very bright yellow. I had to return it, but I did purchase another LB dress that fit much better.

I tried this on in the store today and I left without buying it because I told myself I just didn't need another summer dress, but I've been kicking myself ever since and I am going back tomorrow to get it. I have dark hair and eyes and the color is great for me. It is flourescent so it's not a dress you can hide in, but I think that's great for summer. The shape looks like nothing until you put the belt on, then it gives you the perfect nip at the waist. I could see adding a wider belt in orange or pink or tan too.

There is an under layer so the dress is not see through as long as you wear light-colored undergarments. I liked the peasant style and the length hit me just at the bottom of the knee (I'm 5'6"). This will be a great casual dress for me this summer with flat sandals or wedges. It had better still be there tomorrow!!

I really like this dress. Shorter than usual, at 5'4" it hit me at the knees. But it was super flattering and very comfortable. I wore with multi-strand blue necklace from LB and nude wedge espadrilles. Looked great!

LOVE it!!

Date:May 1, 2013

Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort

AS for the color, yes the first photos they had up depicted a light pastel yellow. I still bought it b/c I loved the way it looked. They have a new photo up with the TRUE color. Its more of a highlighter yellow. When I got to the store I paired it with a hot pink belt and it looks fabulous! Even the store clerk said it looked better with that belt. I love it! I hope they come out with more colors as I do have blonde hair so its a bit off for me to wear this color, but Ilove it and its different from anything else I have!

Nice dress for the summer

Date:April 27, 2013

Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort

I like the color of the dress. Fits well. I placed the belt underneath my chest. I usually wear a 18/20 but the 14/16 fit perfect. Definitely needs a slip or slip shorts underneath.

Pretty summer dress

Date:April 27, 2013

Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort

I read previous reviews and not my experience at all. This dress is a bright yellow, the belt provides the shape to create a waist. It's feminine and pretty.
